1984 and a brave new world misc 12 00
1984 was a very important book. First, it helped show where communism was headed, and helped create repulsion towards Communism. Before this book (and Animal Farm) a lot of people thought Communism was a good thing. The major mainstream generally neutral about it, but this book really opened up and showed what a bad idea it was, because it showed where communism was headed, not a place where everyone was equal, but a place that was once that and evolved into a horrible totalitarian government that could never be toppled. Second, I'm not sure whether this book could last for years for generations to enjoy. Although I hope it remains a favorite, it was really ment as a political novel of the 20th century. It could still last though, if people don't forget about the 20th century, or something similar to communism appears in the future. (and even if that doesn't happen, it will probably still be liked because it's just a good book) Also, it would be ironic if something sim! ilar to "newspeak" comes about, English is forgotten and this book would be unreadible. Third, I think this shows an interesting portrait of human life. It's true, the upper class always tries to stay upper, the middle class tr
Forth, I think this book would go very good in a series. In conclusion, this book shows that the society is a great influence of the mentality of the people in it, even if they don't like it. Winston's job is editing old copies of The Times, which is the newspaper in London. No one knows where he resides, and no one knows what his real name is. They get the proles in line by keeping them ignorant, by giving them entertainment and such to keep them happy, and keep them ignorant about the suffering and injustice going on. At first, he thinks he's some sort of individual, and different then most people. Before this book (and Animal Farm) a lot of people thought Communism was a good thing. Everybody will betray their loved ones, at some cost, and will be forced into so! mething that they hate, at some cost. Then, he's resistant to the capturers, and thinks they can never get to him. It's true, the upper class always tries to stay upper, the middle class tries to join the upper class, and the lower class wants everyone to be equal. Bibliography The Importance of 1984 1984 was a very important book. (and even if that doesn't happen, it will probably still be liked because it's just a good book) Also, it would be ironic if something sim! ilar to "newspeak" comes about, English is forgotten and this book would be unreadible. They rebel against Big Brother by loving each other, and having sex.
